Question
Three electric charges are placed along the x-axis as follows :
a +16 nC charge is placed at x = -8 cm,
a -20 nC charge is placed at x = +4 cm,
and a -10 nC charge is placed at x = +10 cm.
Therefore, the magnitude of the electric field at the origin is (k is the Coulomb's constant)
Group of answer choices
k (11.10 x 10-5 ) N/C
k (1.1 x 10-5 ) N/C
k ( 1.6 x 10-5 ) N/C
k (6.1 k x 10-5 )
